Her passion for working with metal began during her master’s studies, where she explored silver and brass in combination with stones, wood, and plastic. Inspired by techniques for coloring and oxidizing metal, she began integrating these methods into her creations.
Andra’s work is driven by experimentation, viewing jewelry as a dynamic play of forms, textures, materials, and contrasts. She is particularly intrigued by the interaction between the piece and its wearer. Her designs often create illusions and provoke questions about wearability and ergonomics, inviting discovery and exploration.
The GRANUM collection explores the tension between permanence and transience, using silver as a material of memory and the technique of granulation as a reinterpreted ancient language.
The five Silver brooches, with oval shapes that evoke the cyclicity and fragility of time, transpose tradition into a contemporary register.
Granulation, once an expression of craftsmanship and power, is deconstructed and reorganized, transforming each piece into a space for dialogue between the collective past of the treasure and the individual sensitivity of the present.
The oxidized surfaces contrast with the pure silver, evoking the idea of layering—of memory, history, and identity. The piece with a mirror-polished surface deepens this dialogue, reflecting both the past and the present, inviting introspection and self-reflection.
The pieces are both personal relics and universal symbols of transformation and continuity.
